    Can't decide between purchasing a Eurocode short throw shifter or a CTS intake. What would you guys go for?

    SS all the way. You actually interact with that as you drive. The stock shifter is a loose goose

    Intake, you can remove it no problems, but the short-shifter may give you problems down the line.

    i think the s.s. would be a more exclusive mod setting you apart a bit while delivering a certain level of practicality and the intake being more of a vanity "whine" mod which is also nice.

    This reminds me, i need to get my microphone and laptop out and get a good under the hood sounds clip. I'll get that done once my clutch is broken in, maybe make a ringtone out of it. Lol

    intake. I have both - the intake noise is intoxicating and everyone around you hears it too.

    I went with the Roc-Euro. I don't have any regrets. I do wish that the shield had a hard mounting solution. The rubber boot at the bottom of the shield is separating where it was glued and pinned to the stock rubber foot holes in the bay.

    yeah the roc euro is absolutely intoxicating from what i can tell. I think I want a fully enclosed intake because I always had issues w/ past cars and heat soak though it looks you're in the south too (Al. i'm n Tn) so that's good to hear no regrets.

    If you are planning to do both anyway, I'd go with the shifter due to the good discount currently available (assuming the holiday pricing is still in effect). If it's back to normal pricing, go with the intake.

    That is a good point. The eurocode shifter is wayyyy cheap compared to what others have paid.
